HOTHAM
Fairly safe ALP, 7.4%.
Suburban: middle south-eastern suburbs of Melbourne, centred on Moorabbin, Bentleigh East, Oakleigh South and Springvale.
Member: Hon. Simon Crean (born 1949), since 1990.
The real danger to Crean lies with ambitious Labor politicians who think the former leader has had his day, not with his local voters.
Declared Candidates
- Vince Arborea, Liberal Party
- Mathew Billman, Greens
